Introduction
What does perseverance of the saints mean?
The doctrinal statement of Faith Bible Church reads like this: “All of the redeemed are kept eternally secure in Christ by the power of God.” (from the Doctrinal Statement of Faith Bible Church) “If you have it—that is, if you have genuine faith and are in a state of saving grace—you will never lose it.
If you lose it, you never had it.”(R.
C. Sproul).
“Calvinists say God works infallibly to preserve us in faith — all of us who are truly born again — and that no one is ever lost who was truly born of God.” - John Piper.

- John Piper
